Comments
This avalanche is located on the rock slabs in between Bonkers and the Diving Board, like the other slide not sure if it was a glide which I suspect or a wet slab. I took a photo of the glide cracks in this area a couple days ago and noted that the were buckling and spreading out, must have released yesterday at some point in time.
